In myopathy patients, fat mass increases as the disease progresses, while lean body mass decreases. The present study aimed to investigate the overall nutritional status of Korean myopathy patients through surveys of diet and dietary habits, bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), and biochemistry tests, as well as the examination of related factors, for the purpose of using such findings as a ...

UNLABELLED Purpose. To report two persons with acute, bilateral, and simultaneous angle closure glaucoma in pseudophakia secondary to uveal effusions induced by administration of chlorthalidone. Methods. CASE REPORTS Results. Bilateral shallow anterior chambers and high intraocular pressure with decline in visual acuity were reported in two patients within days of intake of chlorthalidone for...

Abstract Flow separation will occur in the nacelle inlet under crosswind operation, which result engine intake distortion and even surge. To study reference characteristics of flow field short tank influence crosswind, this paper observed cloud map total price loss coefficient by changing deflection Angle velocity, made a qualitative analysis pressure degree, then calculated average index, cond...

This study uses a simplified two-dimensional time-dependent computational fluid dynamic (CFD) model to the influence of wall shelf configuration and outtake honeycomb inclination angle on performance air curtain in an open-type semi-vertical refrigerated display cabinet. Numerical simulation results show that changing angle, along with configuration, can reduce temperature intake grille improve...

The flow control in twin air-intakes is necessary to improve the performance characteristics, since the flow traveling through curved and diffused paths becomes complex, especially after merging. The paper presents a comparison between two well-known techniques of flow control: active and passive. It presents an effective design of a vortex generator jet (VGJ) and a vane-type passive vortex gen...

Abstract The most important design index of water intakes is critical submergence depth the intake. at which air core formed by vortex about to enter emergence a and entry into intake increase head loss decrease discharge coefficient. reservoir geometric asymmetry, presence unevenness in bottom angle approach flow are among factors that influence formation depth. In this research, physical mode...

BACKGROUND Malnutrition is a major problem among children with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) and it is essential to be recognized as early as possible. Aim of our study was to assess the nutrition status of children with CKD. METHODS Nutrition status of 30 children (1-16 years) with CKD stages IIIV and on peritoneal dialysis was evaluated. Malnutrition risk was assessed by Pediatric Digital Sc...

abstract lateral intake is a hydraulic structure which is used for diversion of some portion of water from a river for the purpose of irrigation, storage and industrial. most of lateral intakes from canal are installed at canal with inclined banks which has not received the attention of the researchers in the past. since the flow discharge and sediment which enters the intake canal depends on t...
